BOKU NO HERO: ANIME AT IT’S PRIME





 I’m not sure if I mentioned this on my blog before but I used to hate boku no hero so bad,I thought it was cheesy and very childish. Well at first glance it certainly looks that way so I do not completely blame ignorant me for thinking so you know?. For those familiar with this anime,I complained about everything from the basic concept of quirks to the complexity of why the students of U.A wanted to be heroes.

When I first started watching it,I dumped it at episode 8 because I did not find it interesting enough and then boom!,one day out of boredom I decided to pick up from episode 8 and damn I could not miss a single scene. Boku no hero is so special because it is that it manages to have the ingredients of Anime like Hunter x Hunter,Naruto,One Piece,e.t.c but it also manages to still be very unique and entertaining.


 It has the potential to run for many many many seasons,I think the story of Midoriya and his classmates training at U.A to become heroes simply resonates with people because it is simple and also imaginative. I think every kid at least had that one hero dream moment. I love the way BNH sheds more light on characters,they don’t drag it till the instead it feels like feeler,instead it actually feels important and gives characters extra layers.


  To me the creator of this anime certainly got inspired by a lot of things for one,Endeavour the second best hero is obviously based of from Fire Lord Ozai I mean they are both abusive fathers of powers who put their sons through so much emotional trauma growing up not only by isolating their wives,but also by forcing their sons into becoming better warriors.



All might the number one hero is the representation of a true hero who on the outside seems untouchable but is actually fragile and even at that,will do whatever it takes to protect people. A lot of heroes can be said to fit this description but to me superman best fits it.


 You also have the Rivalry between Bakugo and Midoriya which I like to call infant Sasuke v Naruto. I call it infant because their rivalry is still in it’s basic stage it isn’t mature yet. Bakugo is still the sasuke who is naturally gifted and often discriminate others and likes being a loner while Midoriya is still the Naruto who will still keep fighting no matter how it gets even if the chances of success are slim and that is because,that is his hero way…..he will do anything to protect his classmates and innocent people.


  I also think Tokoyami the dark shadow bearer is very similar to Neji, in the sense that they are both generally excellent and well focused students who have the potential to be the best but have some inner control issues to work about before they can get to where they want. Okay am getting off track and all but I couldn’t help but gush about this anime that I once hated. I love it so much now that I have the temptation to read the manga due to weekly release of episodes and am hardly ever interested in doing that.

 In summary Boku no hero is a great anime because it has all the ingredients and it uses those ingredients excellently. From its rich characters,great comedy and epic battles….everything about this anime is fun,upbeat and engaging!.



   Sorry for taking a while to post this,I know I talked about making a post covering my opinion on it but I forgot but as I woke up a couple of minutes ago,I got inspired to write all these just because I’ve wanted to for a while now. What do you think? Do you agree with me? Do you like the character comparisons or do you think am exaggerating. Do not be shy, tell me what you think.

First Listen: Lil Yachty - Let's Start Here.

 woah. brother broccoli starts 2023 with something totally unexpected: a psychedelic rock album. lil yachty said in an interview (with someone i don't remember) that he just wants to be taken seriously, as a musician. it's a little sad when someone puts their all into a craft, sometimes even create a groundbreaking sound, but still get termed the bare minimum or worse, "mumble rapper." while this album is beautiful, it's not as stellar as other projects in the same genre. but music is more than that. it's also the process, emotions, message, etc. brother broccoli took a risk to make what he wants/feels and he succeeded. that's what makes this album a beauty asides the wonky ai art and trying-hard-to-stay-in-the-flow lyricism . the features ate. the producers brought their a-game. the engineers blessed the record. since poland, it's clear that yachty decided to broaden his scope and make not just music he loves, but quality. i definitely respect his art...

STRANGER THINGS 2

   A lot of movies and shows are set in the past these days but in my own opinion, none of them really do it like STRANGER THINGS. If you remove the acting,the amazing plot,and chemistry, what you're left with is these show that has a very '80s feel because of the overall sound from the show and visuals.      Season 2 is a blast and it simply perfected the formula season 1 set which is, simple plot,great characters,good chemistry and amazing(classic)music. My face everytime Dustin jokes       The Season starts a year after and all our characters are basically trying to settle on after the ending of the first season. Mike's still trying to communicate with Eleven, Will is bullied in school, he's called "zombie boy", Lucas is well still Lucas and Dustin has teeth now,"Prrrr"(you'll get the joke soon enough)       I'll try not to be very spoiler-y so let's start up!!!. •MAX AND BILLY     The dick The new...

WESTWORLD: A NEW WORLD

 Do you like westerns(cowboy films) ? Are you a sci-fi fan?  Do you like the Nolan Brothers(Christopher and Jonathan)  who have brought you collaborative projects like Inception and Interstellar?  Well if you do like all those things, keep reading and if you don't, keep reading... There's a point to this.  Westworld, is a sci-fi, western television series that tackles the question created by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, Westworld is a very ambitious show that tackles the questions, "what does it mean to be conscious"? and "what it means to be truly human". In the future, there's a super realistic western park created by a man named Ford and his dead partner Arnold. They created life like being called hosts and gave them roles to play in a western world.  Real human beings come to the park and are given the opportunity to dive into the madness and realness of the place. They can do whatever they want to in the park and that is just a fraction...
